Water & Education

It’s not that water is more important than education—it’s foundational. Try to convince teachers in the developing world otherwise. Educational opportunities linked to water have lifelong impacts across generations. (you’ll need Adobe Reader).

Water & Poverty

The poorest people in the world actually pay some of the world’s highest prices for drinking water, and the water they get is less clean and plentiful. Not only do they pay more financially, the poor pay more in the form of lost time, health, education, and life. (you’ll need Adobe Reader).

Country

Living Water Peru, in partnership with Tommy Head Peru Ministries, works deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest to bring clean water to native tribes living along tributaries of the Amazon River. These communities, forgotten by their government, cannot continue to develop without clean water. In many of these remote areas, the infant mortality rate is 50 percent or higher. The need for sustainable water solutions is desperate, but reaching these areas is often challenging. Getting to the villages, transporting supplies, and other mobilization efforts are risky, difficult, and costly.
